Structure and Function Relationship of Activated Retinal Glia in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma Patients

Purpose. To evaluate clinically activated retinal astrocytes and Muller cells (ARAM) regarding retinal sensitivity and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods. Central visual field (VF; i.e., retinal sensitivity) was measured with a custom-made macular pattern by microperimetry and correlated with the presence (ARAM
